notasexpat Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 (edited) The long-dormant tsunami warning towers at Patong Beach will soon be providing advertising. The new service is expected to gain wide acceptance and to draw far more tourists to Phuket's beaches. Thank god, the street sellers werent annoying enough. This will definately hit kata,kata noi and nai harn in time I give it 3 weeks beforer you start having "Me tuktuk corner bangla! where u go? i go!"

Sir Burr Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 It isn't syl. Remember petit chevre? The non-native English speaker with the supposedly hi-so missus and the hatred of bar girls and sexpats?
